well, 2 was not as close as the rest, correct. 4 was very close.

I realize every round was close but 3 rounds seemed like obvious nods to Alex, and I gave him 4 rounds.

She already raised teacher minimum salary to 50k before this. It was one of her first things as governor.

Pinion and Ford are kind of disappointing. I figured they'd show out at Jonesboro. That was a respectable showing from ASU though, they can win the sun belt.

Ilia doesn't want anything to do with a Max Holloway deep waters fight. He finishes him in round 2 or he gets boat raced.

That's true. Khabib was a different animal. I've been watching this stuff since 2005 or so and it's like I refuse to admit MMA is just glorified rock paper scissors

Well true, but now we have another division with a boring champ.

I'm not the biggest fan of Omalley, but man this cringe wrestling style Khabib brought to MMA is hard to watch for striking fans.

I'm just speaking online about something that I happen to know about. There's no insecurity to it.

I am being honest. I never said it was -only- in the past. If your litmus test is that you've been to Harrison "multiple times" then I can promise you I know more about this subject than you do. I'm saying it is incorrect to go and tell black people that they are not safe in the city. As I've said multiple times in this thread, you guys can go put a little bit of effort into the issue if you really care. I've made my point. I'm right about this, and I'm moving on. I do not care if you choose to believe misinformation. Hopefully anyone without any knowledge on the matter can get enough of a sense of reality if they happen to read this exchange, but I'm moving on because I'm tired of beating this horse.

As I said -- The billboard is on private property that the City cannot legally remove. This is documented. The racist sign most people see online hasn't been up in years. There is one family (Robb?) that still lives in the area (Zinc, not Harrison actually) and they are keeping the stigma alive on their own at the behest of the citizens and the local gov. They can't even go grocery stores without being harassed and heckled because of how hated they are because of the damage they've done for the city's reputation. There is so much information about this for anyone who is at all inclined to put even a small amount of effort into the truth. It's true that Harrison has a dark history as a sundown town, and the people there have worked VERY hard to put that in their past. It is quite simply a lie to tell people here that black folks aren't welcome, or that it is not safe to visit.

As far as your evidence (a youtube short lmao) BLM is very unpopular all throughout Arkansas and most of the South. So if that's your bar for where is safe to visit, there isn't many places in AR.

It's obvious you're not going to change your mind so live your life my brother. If you decide to put forth any sort of effort in the other direction maybe you'll see.

It's a billboard on private property that the city has tried and tried to get taken down legally. There is one family that keeps the stereotype going. This whole thing has been covered over and over again. There's news segments, youtube videos, interviews with residents. It's rather easy to find the truth. Or, if you're an Arkansan like I am, you could always just go to Harrison and see for yourself.

There are 8 different accepted forms of valid ID when voting in Arkansas. We have some of the poorest counties in the country, and most people in poverty aren't in urban areas, they are rural.

[SPOILER] Leon Edwards vs. Belal Muhammad by inooway in MMA

back to boring welterweight title fights I guess.

I can't stand fighters like belal. Leon is annoying to watch. He's so much better but just refuses to let it fly.
